Three changes have been made by the Western Bulldogs to face the Sydney Swans at the SCG on Thursday night.

The Bulldogs have turned to youth, as an experienced trio makes way.

As confirmed on Tuesday, draftee Louis Butler will make his AFL debut against the Swans.

Rhylee West also comes in, for his first game in 2020, while Pat Lipinski returns after being left out of the side that defeated the GWS Giants last week.

Making way due to injury are star midfielder Josh Dunkley (ankle) and Lin Jong (Achilles soreness), while Matt Suckling has been omitted.

Tory Dickson, Lachie Young and yet-to-debut duo Jordon Sweet and Callum Porter have been named as emergencies.

After notching their first win of 2020 last week against the Giants, the Bulldogs will be out to level their ledger in 2020 against the in-form Swans.

John Longmire’s side enjoyed an 11-point win against North Melbourne last week, which sees them sitting seventh on the ladder ahead of round four.

The match will be broadcast live on Channel 7 and FOX Footy.
